Description
The Inner Lodge at Bilton Grange is a lodge built around 1861 for John Lancaster. It is constructed of red brick with ashlar dressing and features roofs covered in fish scale tiles arranged in bands, with coped gables and tile crests. The building is single storey and consists of two bays, with two single-cell blocks positioned in echelon and a hipped projection at the return angle.
On the left side, there is a projecting gable that includes a chamfered Tudor arched doorway, above which is a panel displaying the initials JL, representing John Lancaster. The right return features a three-light pointed arched window with glazing bars, next to an external stack that has a stepped gable and a panel with initials, along with a rebuilt octagonal flue. The recessed gable on the right has a two-light pointed arched window, which has been reglazed, and a trefoil above it. The right return also has a three-light pointed arched window. At the rear, the gable includes a shouldered external stack with an octagonal flue and a crenellated cap.
Inside, there is a tiled fireplace with a wooden surround dating from around 1900.
